About this map

Ranchitos las Lomas Colonia and a series of nearby residential developments define the northern reaches of this landscape in Webb County. Local history is etched into the grid of streets such as Cam Las Lomas and Cam Del Sur, serving small communities including Los Nopalitos, Los Fresnos, Los Arcos, and Los Centenarios. This cluster of settlements represents the modern residential expansion into the brush country of South Texas, where traditional ranching infrastructure still predominates.

South of these developments, the terrain is characterized by a network of drainage creeks and livestock water sources, essential for ranching in this arid environment. Named features like Burrito Tank, Jave Tank, and Llorona Tank are scattered across the landscape, connected to watercourses such as Piedra Parada Cr and San Juanito Cr. The map captures the persistence of the ranching economy through its numerous tanks and property-access roads like Ranch Rd 7150J.
